Sponsorship

One of the many rewarding ways to get involved with the House directly is to sponsor one of the children in our care

Do you want to make a difference in a child’s life? Would you like to help provide an adult with a home? Our sponsorship program allows you to contribute towards the care of one, or more, of the children or adults in our home. You will also be able to get to know the people we care for individually and see how your sponsorship has really made a difference in their lives. We will send you a biography of the child or adult you sponsor and you will be sent updates on them. It has become very expensive to live in Palestine and so no amount of money, however small, is insignificant to us. For example:

$5 will buy treats for the children and brighten up their day

$10 will buy food for one person for a day

$25 will pay for heating for one night during the cold winter

$30 will cover cleaning products for the whole home for a week

$100 will roughly cover a teacher's salary for one week.

It is also possible to give towards our workshop to help to cover running costs.
